Primeval Meta - 7 Impossible Things Danny Quinn Accomplished - part 1

Queuing these up on tumblr in honor of @incorrectprimeval and @i-was-bored-so-this-happened​ for keeping the Very Good Primeval Content going on this hellsite <3

________

Well, there's been some debate in the past over the authenticity of many of Danny's actions throughout the series. The term "Marty Stu" has even been used. But are these accomplishments actually possible? To find out, we take a more in depth look* at seven of the Accomplishments of The Mighty Quinn.

1 Played Helicopter Cat & Mouse with a G-Rex (3-04)

The Stunt:

While pursuing a G-Rex at an airfield, Danny hijacks a helicopter and uses it to act as bait and lure the G-Rex back to the anomaly. With 2 lessons under his belt, Danny manages to fly the 'copter through the hanger doors and into the anomaly without injuring anyone. The helicopter is left on the other side of the anomaly, and Danny crosses back to safety.

The Science:

Distracting the G-Rex: As we all learned from Jurassic Park, it's largely believed that Theropods see primarily through movement. (Supported in episode by Connor laying still on the pavement and escaping the dinosaur's large toothy jaws.) As such, the constant motion of the helicopter would be a perfect distraction to this dinosaur.

Dangerous Helicopter flying after 2 lessons: This is more debatable. We can assume that at most he's had 16 hours of experience in an actual helicopter, but likely it's closer to 4-6. However, it only takes an average of 40-60 hours of flight time to obtain the Helicopter Private Pilot certificate, so if we assume that his 2 lessons were purely flight time and that he was able to do classroom learning and flight simulators outside of that, then he could possibly be able to fly as in the episode, even through the low and narrow hanger doors.

Escaping to Safety: The rotating blades of a helicopter continue to rotate for a time after the engine is cut, theoretically allowing enough of a moving distraction for the G-Rex for our pilot to escape with less notice.

"Bloke's got serious issues with bad breath." The Verdict:A bit of a long shot, but possible - Danny is one lucky ginger bastard. Possible: 1, Impossible: 0
